The Trust’s Recovery Academy provides a range of free educational courses and resources for people with mental health and substance misuse problems, their families and carers.

All of the courses focus on supporting people with their recovery and promote good health and wellbeing. The courses are useful if you are looking to increase your knowledge and understanding of mental health, improve your mental wellbeing, or simply want to meet new people while learning something new.

Who runs the courses?

The courses are co-written and co-delivered by professionals and people with mental health or substance misuse problems in order to recognise with equal importance both professional expertise and lived experience and promote our philosophy of shared learning.

Who can attend?

The Recovery Academy offers courses to:

• Anyone who is experiencing mental health or substance misuse problems
• Their supporters (family, friends and loved ones)
• Trust staff, volunteers and students on placement
• Health Care Professionals

All the courses are free, but you need to register and sign a Student Charter before attending.

Further information, along with the full list of courses can be found within the prospectus in the download section of this page.
